HI all this Is my Nor star fire boat saved from ebay. From what I can tell all parts needed to finish are there. I do have the half scale plans but no build Instruction. If any one can point me In the write direction I would be very gratefull. Thanks pete.

Restoring my 46 Inch fire boat bought from ebay currently stripping It back as paint was letting It down was running a graupner 600 turbo motor but changing and adding sound module and working fire monitors.

hI there the engine Is a zenaoh 26 with a clutch fitted the engine can be bought from millpond models co.uk It runs on petrol 2 stroke mix had no problems yet had too modified the boat to fit the engine as the kit was ment for electric power lol.

Hi, I've just noticed your RAF RTTL. Looks good. This coming winter I plan to build a RTTL from plans I have acquired. Overall length 5ft. I guess with your IC engine it moves pretty quickly, I'm going to have to stick with electric power as the sailing sites in the South West are all sail or electric only.Happy sailing

built this one after the first one was stolen which has turned out for the better. Has working fire monitors,anchor,bow thruster,sounds,searchlight,lightsand a bloke on the back having a wee, which In turn acts as a bilge pump to tell me there Is water In the boat

I believe only one pump was used in the Robbe kit, but I never used it. So I went ahead and used three car screenpumps from Halfords. Then I went ahead & designed electronic circuits so that I could select any one, any two or all three monitors which worked well. I did away with the Vertical motion Servo's, the cords kept snapping. I used a F14 transmitter with 8 Channels.The only sound unit used was for a Siren complete withflashing blue lamp. Lights and Radar are activated by switches before sailing. No working Anchor, and last year I installed brushless motors which improved motion.

Wonderful hobby! I live 1800 miles from my Dad! Will be seeing him this week In Seattle, we're going to Tacoma for reference photos of the AlkI Fireboat, It's In dry dock on display, can finally capture the below water line details! Pop Is "onboard" with the outing!

This Is a Kitshack 46 Inch Crash Tender. Nearly finished with a bit more detail yet to finish powered by 2 1400 kv brushless motors running on car speed controllers at 7.2 volt. Goes like stink! Has working rotatable fire monitors which are scratch built

I made my own from bits of tube and old coins for flanges. The nozzle is just sleeved down with progressively smaller tube till it squirted about right. Pump is a standard grapnel unit. Hopefully this link to a photo blog will work. https://picasaweb.google.com/102817163504371499744/RAFCrashT...The link will give you details of the motors and speed controllers and the props I used. It's quick!

100% scratch built model of the Toronto harbor Fireboat. Been In the making for almost five years now. When finished It will be RC and have water pumping capabilities. Toronto Fire Services are celebrating the boat's 50th anniversary this year and appear to be Interested In my model. The boat will be powered by two Dumas six volt motors geared three to one.
